- 1 package (16.5 ounces) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk
- 3 cups mixed fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, mandarin oranges recommended)
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Press the refrigerated sugar cookie dough evenly onto a 12-inch pizza pan or a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the cookie crust for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool completely on the pan. This step is important for the frosting.
- While the crust cools, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. Beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Once the cookie crust is completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top.
- Arrange your mixed fresh fruit decoratively over the frosting layer. You can create patterns or simply scatter the fruit.
- Chill the fruit pizza for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a mini fruit pizza version, use pre-made, individual sugar cookies as the base instead of one large crust.
- If you want a slightly tangier frosting, substitute 1 tablespoon of the milk with fresh lemon juice.
- Pat any very wet fruit, like sliced strawberries, lightly with a paper towel before placing them on the frosting to prevent sogginess.
